Chocolate Cherry Surprise Cupcakes for Cook for the Cure #10000cupcakes

As you probably know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. This month hh gregg and KitchenAid have teamed up to raise awareness with their #10000Cupcakes campaign. During the month of October, KitchenAid will donate $1 for every original picture of a cupcake shared on Twitter or Instagram, up to $10,000. Make sure you use the hashtags #10000Cupcakes and #Donate for it to count. I’m including a very sweet, but very tasty recipe for Chocolate Cherry Surprise cupcakes that you can make, take a picture and share for the campaign.

Bake at 350 for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the cake part of the cupcake comes out clean.

Frosting

Mix all ingredients well in a KitchenAid mixer. If it is too dry, add water to the frosting 1 teaspoon at a time until desired consistency is achieved.

I absolutely love my KitchenAid mixer and don’t know how I got anything done in my kitchen before I got one! My mother in law ended up buying me one after I burnt out her small mixer trying to make a double batch of frosting. She bought herself one as well!

What is your favorite cupcake to make? I love anything with either whipped cream frosting or cream cheese frosting. Ever since I took my cake decorating classes I can no longer stand buttercream frosting!

Make sure you visit hh gregg to purchase a KitchenAid product, tweet a picture of a cupcake to #10000cupcakes #donate, or just make a donation to the Susan G Koman foundation during the month of October to help with Breast Cancer Awareness.

She also covers product reviews and travel as well.

Thank you for posting this recipe. Even though ours didn’t look as beautiful as yours, it tasted totally delicious. I think we need to practice making it again. I’ll post a picture of our second cake. 🙂
